INTRODUCTION

Ask Thai people whether or not they have ever purchased a lottery ticket, and you’ll find most will say yes. In fact, it’s quite hard to find a Thai who’s never bought a lottery ticket. That may not seem like a particularly remarkable fact. But ask Thais how they decide which numbers to buy and things can get distinctly bizarre in the eyes of western people. The fact is, there are virtually no lengths to which Thais will not go in order to get that winning combination of numbers.

Gamblers the world over pray to their gods for success and inspiration, or to simply be given one last chance to hit the big time. But few – in the West, anyway – will head to church to ask their local vicar for lottery numbers. In Thailand, however, a visit to the temple or a shrine to pray for the right numbers is commonplace. Even some monks have a reputation for being able to divine which digits will do the trick. Other Thais visit fortune tellers for lottery advice. When a respected Buddhist monk dies, many people will go to the monk’s temple to pay their respects but also in the hope of getting lottery hints – maybe the date of the monk’s birth or death or, if he was hospitalized before his death, the number of his hospital room. Other sources of numbers are car registration plates, addresses or telephone numbers.

Every one of us uses instinct to pick a winning number while buying the lottery ticket, and to that end we usually fail. Many attribute it to bad luck or something unfortunate – but there are tricks and strategies that could be employed to maximize the chances of winning the lottery. Despite the fact that winning a lottery is just a game of luck, the following tips (suggested by experts) may give you the edge you need to win a lottery and change your life for good!

- First of all you should stick to the game. Most of the times, people quit the game after a few repeated failures which is likely to reduce their chances of winning anytime in life. If you stick to the Thai lotto, you would definitely expose yourself to the small prizes or jackpots in longer run. The secret is hidden in the consistency of trying luck and being persistent.

- Be wise in number selection: usually people try to choose a number based on age, dates related to births, marriages, symbolic numbers like 7 and so on. Very often we want predict lucky numbers in different ways. But this is a terrible idea. By doing this you actually limit your possibilities of winning the lottery, as this will bind you within some particular number ranges from 1 to 31. Another problem is that you will pick almost the same numbers again and again. So, don’t do that. It is always better to select your lottery number judiciously. It may boost the chance to win a lottery.

- For those who can afford it, it is a good (but expensive) idea to buy 100 tickets in a random series.

- Be determined and have patience: determination is always the key to success. You should never lose hope, but keep trying again and again. As Thai lottery is very easy to play and numbers are drawn frequently, you should not quit playing after a short while. If you keep going you may win a regular prize or even the jackpot. There are many examples of winning the jackpot in the Thai lotto!

- Another important tip that players of the lottery should keep in mind is to keep track of the failed lottery numbers. Such numbers after a small period of time have more likelihood to win a prize for the player.


By the way, there are other approaches less expensive to choose lottery numbers. As said, strategy for winning in Thai lotto plays a crucial role for chances of winning in lottery. Regular winners of the lottery do a lot of research on the numbers they choose and the probability of numbers to be selected.

The most clever and logical approach is done by the statistical calculation of probabilities; even better if done by a specific software.

"Thai Lottery Lucky Numbers Generator" is actually the only statistical number picker developed for the Thai Lottery. This software already considers the suggestions listed above and other useful elements. It is a reliable application for Windows operating systems, designed to automatically generate lottery numbers based on the basis of previous draws, statistical data, percentage formulas and / or random occurrences.

With the help of this software, you can save a lot of time and increase your chances of winning by buying numbers or combinations statistically generated by the application for the chosen draw date.

To find out in advance which numbers will be drawn with an accuracy of 100% is an impossible task for everyone and every software. The lottery player has no other resources than previous draws and good luck.

You can never be sure that you or a software will pick the winning numbers, but you can increase your chances by picking more possible numbers and combinations statistically generated. "Thai Lottery Lucky Numbers Generator" will stop you from making guesswork and get you into a more scientific approach of lottery draws, giving you the best chances of winning.

So now, what does "statistically generated" mean? Our statistical engine picks up numbers on the basis of calculations performed on the previous draws. For example, if the same number appeared twice during the recent draws, is very unlikely that it will be drawn again, for the third time. In such a case, the engine will not consider that number, unless the player has chosen "100 % pure luck" in the settings page. Another situation: if a specific number hasn't been drawn for a long time, the statistical engine will consider it "interesting".

By setting the statistical engine at high percentage, the software will generate numbers from among those respecting the above rules and tips, as well as other rules and conditions implemented. See Chapter 3 for more info.

We hope that every person who comes to Thailand tries out the Thai lottery. The chances of winning are much higher than those of the European and American lotteries, even though the prizes are smaller. However, always be aware of agents who try to trick you and be aware of all kinds of theft. Chapters 6.3 and 6.4 will explain you how.

We are working hard to improve the software, following the customers' experience on it and their suggestions.

This User Guide and the related screenshots refer to the full version 8.1 of the application.

We wish you all a lot of fun and good luck!

1 - SOFTWARE FEATURES

1.1 - Overview

The application is divided into five sections:

INTRO ARCHIVE SETTINGS 2 DIGITS NUMBER STATISTICS

3 DIGITS NUMBER STATISTICS

FULL NUMBER – LAST 2 STATISTICS

FULL NUMBER – LAST 3 STATISTICS

GENERATE EXIT

The "Intro" Section

The user can choose a draw date, read the rules of Thai lottery, the Tips, enter the Archive of previous draws, or go to the next section.

The "Archive" Section

A database of previous Thai lottery draws sheets to view or print. It allows users to select any given date in order to review the results of past draws quickly and easily. You can print the full sheet of a previous draw. The software automatically updates the latest draw's results. In the "Past Draws Overview" Section, the user can get an overview of all past draws and print it.

The "Settings" Section

The user can manually update the database of previous draw, decide to exclude up to 4 numbers from the next session of generated numbers and choose the percentage between statistical calculation and pure luck.

The “2 Digits Number Statistics” Section

2 digit numbers more and less frequently drawn are listed.

The “3 Digits Numbers Statistics” Section

3 digit numbers more and less frequently drawn are listed.

The “Full Number – Last 2 Digits Statistics” Section

Full number – last 2 digits more and less frequently drawn are listed.


The “Full Number – Last 3 Digits Statistics” Section

Full number – last 3 digits more and less frequently drawn are listed.

The "Generate" Section

This is the main section of the application.

Numbers for the next Thai lottery draw are generated, according to statistical calculations and manual exclusions, and can be saved or printed.

The "Exit" Section

The user can open the jpgs folder or check for application updates.

Let's see in detail the individual sections.

Make sure you're connected to the internet before launching the application, in order to allow the automatic update of the past draws database.

How it works


1.2 - The “Intro” Section

This is the first page that appears once the application launches.

Today Date and Next Draw Date are automatically calculated, as well as the status of the Internet Connection.

Be sure that your computer's date is set correctly. The software uses the computer's date to calculate the next draw date.

Choose your language by clicking on the related flag at the top right corner of the form.

If the user is starting the application to generate numbers for the next draw date, already displayed at the right bottom of the page, he/she simply has to click on “Next”.

If he/she wants to check results and past draws, he/she has to click on “Archive” (the “Next Draw Date” listbox can be ignored).

The “User Guide” button opens a .pdf file that contains the full User Guide, containing useful tips and tricks for the lottery player and important information to use the application at its best.

There are four Statistics pages that allow the user to see the most and the frequently drawn numbers.


1.3 - The “Archive” Section

In this section, the user can search for previous draws and related numbers. If connected to the internet, the draws are automatically updated with the latest results (every draw date at about 5 pm).

If not updated, it is possible that the cache of the browser keeps the old information. In this case, simply restart the computer or clean the browser cache.

1.3.1 - Past Draws Overview

The section displays an overview of the main drawn numbers from year 2000 to the last draw date. The following numbers are considered in the Overview: the « Full first prize number », all four « 3-digit numbers » and the « 2-digit number ». The list can be printed (button « Print Overview ».

1.3.2 - Searching for a past draw sheet

For a complete overview of all the numbers drawn on a specific day, select the date on the overview and click on « Show full sheet ». The user is allowed to print the sheet (pdf file).


1.4 - The "Statistics" Sections

Four sections related to statistics are available from the Intro page.

1.4.1 - The “2 DIGIT NUMBERS” Section

On the left, numbers not drawn for long periods (or never drawn since the first date in the database) are shown. On the right, numbers frequently drawn in past 100 draws are listed.

1.4.2 - The “3 DIGIT NUMBERS” Section

3 digits numbers not drawn since the first date available in the database are listed and grouped by hundreds.


1.4.3 - The “FULL NR – LAST 2” Section

To produce a statistic about the Full Prize Number is a nonsense, seen the hundreds of thousands of combinations related to a 6 digits number. Moreover it would be for the player impossible to find a seller who has the desired ticket. We concentrate our efforts on the last two digits of the full number here (and on the last three digits of the full number in the next section), with the hope that luck do the rest.

As for the 2 DIGITS NUMBERS Section, on the left, numbers not drawn for long periods are shown. On the right, numbers frequently drawn in past 100 draws are listed.

1.4.4 - The “FULL NR – LAST 3” Section

Last 3 digits of the full number not drawn since the first date available in the database are listed and grouped by hundreds.


1.5 - The "Settings" Section

In this section, the user can manually set up the previous numbers draw, can decide the percentage statistical calculation – pure luck, and can manually exclude up to four “2 digit numbers”.

1.5.1 - Previous Numbers Draw

Make sure the date of the previous draw and the related results are properly disclosed in the related box. These numbers are very important, as the statistical engine needs to evaluate them. If you don't have an internet connection, you can manually enter the numbers drawn by clicking on the Edit button and inserting the correct numbers in the fields. You will need to insert the full number, the 2-digit number and the 3-digit numbers.

1.5.2 - Calculation vs Luck

The user can decide the percentage of use of the statistical engine and the random one. By default, the percentage is set to 50%.

By setting the engine 100 % on "Pure Luck", the numbers will be randomly generated.


By setting the engine at 80 % on "Pure Luck", only 20 % of the numbers will be statistically generated, while 80 % will be random. And so on.

In a game like the lottery, statistics are not everything (and can sometimes be disproved). We suggest setting the statistical engine between 60 and 90 %, to give a chance even to luck!

1.5.3 - 2 Digit Numbers Exclusion

The user can exclude up to four numbers. If he/she feels one or more specific numbers for some reason will not be drawn, he/ she must do as follows:

Click on “Edit”

Insert the number(s) to exclude

Click on “Save”

If you use the Fibonacci Exclusion (see below) you cannot manually exclude other numbers.

1.5.4 - Fibonacci Exclusion

If selected, the feature generates 4 random numbers to exclude between the following :

00, 01, 02, 05, 08, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89

The Fibonacci sequence is named for Leonardo Pisano (also known as Leonardo Pisano or Fibonacci ), an Italian mathematician who lived from 1170 – 1250.

It is a set of numbers that starts with a one or a zero, followed by a one, and proceeds based on the rule that each number (called a Fibonacci number) is equal to the sum of the preceding two numbers.

Fibonacci numbers are of interest to mathematicians, statistical researches, biologists and physicists because they are frequently observed in various natural objects and phenomena. The branching patterns in trees and leaves, for example, and the distribution of seeds in a raspberry are based on Fibonacci numbers.


1.6 - The "Generate" Section

This is the main section of the application.

Numbers are generated according to the settings chosen before.

1.6.1 - Settings summary

On the right you have a summary of the settings chosen in the last section, to allow you to check again if it's exactly what you wanted. After the “Generate” button is clicked, the software will consider the settings to generate compatible numbers for the next draw date. The whole procedure lasts less than 30 seconds.

For every draw date, we suggest generate the numbers only once. If you generate the numbers for the same draw day more than once, the system tries to find different numbers according to the same rules. Only the first set generated is statistically the best.

If you decide to change the settings before generating numbers, simply click on the « Back » button to return to the « Settings » page. Make your changes, save them and click on « Next » to come back here. Otherwise, click the « Generate » button.


1.6.2 - Advised Full Numbers

Four numbers related to the First Prize are generated (1 – 12 %):

If you are planning to buy ticket to try to reach the jackpot, choose tickets that end with one of these four suggestions. Red colored 2-digit numbers have a higher chance to be drawn (up to 11 %).

1.6.3 - Advised 3-Digit Numbers

Ten numbers related to the winning 3-digit numbers are generated (4 - 19 %):

Again, if you are planning to buy tickets to try to guess one of the 3-digit numbers that will be drawn, choose from among these suggestions.

1.6.4 - Advised 2-Digit Numbers

Ten numbers related to the winning 2-digit number are generated (13 - 32 %):

Choose from among these suggestions if you are planning to play for the 2-digit number.

1.6.5 - Jolly Numbers

Two suggestions called “Jolly Number” are generated (22 – 45 %). It comes in the form of two-digit numbers.

These numbers have a higher chance than the above suggestions to be drawn (up to 45%), but the software doesn't tell you in which section. It’s up to you to buy these jolly numbers to play for the First Prize number (in this case the suggestion is related to the last two only), the 3-digit numbers (again, in this case the suggestion is related to the last two only), or the 2-digit number.


1.7 - The “Exit” Section

Before closing the application, the user is allowed to open the folder in which the saved .jpgs files are stored, or check for application's updates at its webpage.

The page also provides the developer's email address and website.

2 - GETTING THE BEST OUT OF THE APPLICATION

The following guidelines are the result of customers’ experience and the developers’ knowledge to maximize the chances of winning, using our software.

2.1 - Preparation

- Define a plan for the short or medium term (for instance, 3 months – 6 draws)

- Decide the overall budget you want to invest for that plan (for example, 4'000 Baht)

- Calculate the number of tickets to buy for every draw date.

Let's follow the example and say that you want to invest maximum 4,000 Baht in 3 months. The best solution in such case is to buy 6 tickets for each draw date (about 600 Baht). That produces an investment of 3,600 Baht for the plan.

2.2 - Playing with calculations and good luck

- Launch the application by double-clicking on the green icon on the desktop or inside the Start Menu.

- Check the Draw Date you are playing for in the related listbox and clic “Next”.

For every draw date, it is preferable to generate the numbers only once If you generate the numbers for the same draw day more than once, the system tries to find different numbers according to the same rules. Only the first set generated is statistically the best (see Chapter 3).

- In the “Settings” section, make sure the date of the previous draw and the related results are properly disclosed in the related box.

- Set the Statistical Calculation percentage to 80 %, 90 % or 100 %.

- Manually exclude one number, different from the previous draw date numbers or use the Fibonacci exclusion and clic “Next”.

- In the “Generate” section, allow the software to pick up the numbers. Save or print them.

- Benefit from the statistics: evaluate the numbers to check if the same number appears in two different sections. For example, if you find the same number in the “2-Digit Numbers Advice” box and in the “Full Numbers Advice” box, consider playing it.

- Benefit from the tips: if you want to play a 3-digit number and some 2-digit numbers, choose the 2-digit numbers in the same series as that of the three. For example, if you choose to play the number 423 and the numbers 56 and 87, you have to buy the tickets ending with 423, 456 and 487. Again, if you decide to play only 2 digits numbers, buy tickets of the same series.

- Choose the numbers to play according to your plan.

Always consider to play the two Jolly Numbers in your plan. Jolly Numbers are the ones with the greatest chance of being drawn.

- Keep in mind – or better yet, sign with a circle on the printed sheet – THE POSITION of the numbers you decided to buy.

This step is very important for the following of your plan. In fact, the position of numbers generated by the software is not random, but it does comply with specific programming rules.


2.3 - Remain faithful to the plan

- Every 15 days, for the following draws, you have to use THE SAME SETTINGS you used before (same percentage, Fibonacci exclusion Yes or No and same excluded number).

- Print the sheet of the new generated numbers and draw a circle around the SAME POSITION you played the first time.

The one to the right and the one above are just examples on how to proceed. The position of your first set of numbers chosen at the beginning of your plan may be different than this one. What’s important is to keep the same position you got at the beginning for the whole plan. If your plan considered more numbers, you will have more circles.

- Buy the new generated numbers that are inside these circles

- If you win during the plan's execution, you have two options: either you stop playing, if you are satisfied, or go on with your plan, until the end of it.

DO NOT CHANGE THE RULES you decided before, even if you already won, until the end of your plan. These rules are now: same percentage, Fibonacci exclusion Yes or No, same excluded number and same position on the sheet.

Once the plan is ended, you are free to decide a new one, a new budget and new rules (percentage, Fibonacci exclusion Yes or No, excluded numbers and position on the printed sheet).

Have fun and good luck!


3 – HOW THE STATISTICAL AND RANDOM ENGINES WORK

With the term "statistics", in general, we refer to three different types of calculations :

• DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS

Statistics that describe the main features of a collection of information, or the quantitative description itself, graphical and numerical data, correlation and linear dependence; reflections on the direct and indirect causes of the dependencies and on the presence of confounding factors.

• INFERENTIAL STATISTICS

Inferential statistics are statistics which are used to make inferential statements about a population. These statistics rely on the use of a random sampling technique which ensures that a sample is representative of the population at large. They differ from descriptive statistics, which describe only the data itself in statistical terms.

• CALCULATION OF PROBABILITIES

It helps us to read, study and simulate random phenomena. Probability is a measure or estimation of how likely it is that something will happen or that a statement is true. Probabilities are given a value between 0 (0% chance or will not happen) and 1 (100% chance or will happen). The higher the degree of probability, the more likely the event is to happen, or, in a longer series of samples, the greater the number of times such event is expected to happen.

In our case, the statistical engine refers to the calculation of probabilities.

"The theory of probability is nothing but an attempt of mankind to understand the uncertainty of the universe, to define the indefinable." This, of course, is not a definition, but although it seems likely an intuitive concept, almost instinctive, it is not easy (even for mathematicians) to get a definition of probability that can be applied in any situation and can answer all expectations.

Why then do we speak of probability?

We know and we meet often in kind, in economics, in our daily lives, phenomena that appear to have characteristics of randomness. Very often this randomness is only apparent and may be due to a number of factors which may be unknown or too complex to have an explanation.

What strategies and formulas we should use to interpret the statistics of probability, is still a matter of debate even for experts in the field as Amir D. Aczel, from Israel, popularizer of science, degree in mathematics, author of the quote above. During the development of this software, we made decisions and choices that seemed to us most suited to the characteristics of the Thai lottery, according to our direct experience and personal conviction.

Some of the formulas and rules (here renamed "laws") used by the software are listed below. Others are not disclosed, in the interest of protecting our intellectual property.

The “Thai Lottery Lucky Numbers Generator” statistical engine picks up numbers on the basis of calculations performed on the previous draws. For example, if the same number appeared twice during the recent draws, is very unlikely that it will be drawn again, for the third time. In such a case, the engine will not consider that number, unless the player has chosen "100 % pure luck" in the settings page (Same Number Law). Another example: if a specific number hasn't been drawn for a long time, the statistical engine will consider it "interesting" (Temporal Law).

Depending on the settings chosen by the user, the statistical engine works together (more or less) with the random engine.


Definitions

• Box(es): Field(s) in which the numbers are generated

• Group of boxes: group of fields for a specific advice

• Law(s): rule(s) and / or formula(s) used in the software

• % Luck: percentage of use of the “random engine” (Pure Luck), chosen by the user

• % Calculation: percentage of use of the “statistical calculation engine”, chosen by the user

• Advice: number(s) generated by the software

• Random: number(s) generated without specific rules

• Excluded: number(s) that will not be picked by the software

• Same number X times in the last X draws excluded: if a specific number has been drawn X times during the last X draws, it will be excluded by the statistical engine

General Laws

• Numbers are unique within each group of boxes

• In hyphenated boxes, the numbers are consequential

• The laws are applied differently in different boxes (see Chapters 2.2 and 2.3)

• Generating the numbers more than once for the same draw date, forces the software to choose different numbers. Only the first set of generated numbers for the same date fully complies with the rules (see Chapter 1.5.1)

Temporal Law

Full price number

• 100 % luck: all random

• Other: previous draw numbers excluded in all advice for the last 3 digits

• 60 % Calculation : previous draw numbers excluded in all advice for the last 2 digits

• 70 % Calculation : previous 2 draws numbers excluded in all advice for the last 2 digits




3 digits numbers


• 100 % calculation: previous 200 draws numbers excluded in all advice

• 90 % calculation : previous 190 draws numbers excluded in all advice




• 50 % - 50 % : previous 50 draws numbers excluded in all advice

• Other: previous draw numbers excluded in all advice


2 digits numbers


• 90 % luck: previous draw numbers excluded in all advice

• 80 % luck: previous 2 draws numbers excluded in all advice



• 50 % luck/calculation: previous 4 draws numbers excluded in 6 advice and 5 in the other 6

• 60 % calculation: previous 10 draws numbers excluded in 6 advice and 30 in the other 6





Jolly numbers

• 100 % Luck: both random

• Other: previous 1 to 20 draws numbers excluded in the 1 Jolly number and previous 21 to 40 draws numbers excluded in the 2 Jolly number (exception: “Fibonacci law”, at the bottom)

Same Number Law

Full price number


• 60 to 100 % calculation: same number 3 times in the last 48 draws (2 years) or 2 times in the last 24 draws (1 year) excluded

• Other: same number 2 times in the last 24 draws (1 year) excluded

3 digits numbers


• Other: same number 2 times in the last 24 draws (1 year) excluded

2 digits numbers


• 90 % luck: same number 3 times or more in the last 24 draws ( 1 year) excluded

• 80 % luck: same number 3 times or more in the last 48 draws ( 2 years) excluded

• 70 % luck: same number 3 times or more in the last 48 draws ( 2 years) excluded and same number 2 times in the last 24 draws (1 year) excluded

• 60 % luck: same number 3 times or more in the last 48 draws ( 2 years) excluded and same number 2 times in the last 24 draws (1 year) excluded

• 50 % luck/calculation: same number 3 times or more in the last 48 draws ( 2 years) excluded and same number 2 times in the last 26 draws excluded

• 60 % calculation: same number 3 times or more in the last 48 draws ( 2 years) excluded and same number 2 times in the last 28 draws excluded






Jolly numbers


• Other: same number 2 times in the last 48 draws (2 years) excluded (exception: “Fibonacci law”, at the bottom)

2 digits numbers manual exclusion (see Chapter 1.5.3)

2 digits numbers

• Numbers excluded by the user effectively concern 9 boxes, while in 1 box the software can ignore the user exclusion if the excluded number is considered interesting.

Jolly numbers

• The software ignores the user exclusion feature if the excluded number is considered interesting.

Fibonacci law

The “Statistical Engine” considers the following draw dates more closely.

Previous draw dates: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 and 34

Full price number

• “Fibonacci law” not applied

3 digits numbers


2 digits numbers


Jolly Numbers

• “Same number law” not applied if the number has been drawn two or more times exclusively in the following previous draw dates: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 and 34

Coefficients used for the exclusions' formulas

As we saw above, specific formulas allow the Statistical Engine to pick or not pick a specific number. For all the described laws, the formula contains a factor of importance for the exclusion of numbers. Following are the coefficients used:

• Previous draw date: 89

• 2 draw dates ago: 55











• Before: 00

Fibonacci exclusions

If selected, the feature generates 4 random numbers to exclude between the following :

00, 01, 02, 05, 08, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89

Generated numbers

In addition to the laws described previously, we can state as a general principle the following:

Higher percentage “Statistical Calculation” = Deeper exclusion procedures in past draw dates and less random numbers, as follows (RND = Random ; J. = Jolly Number) :

Numbers : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1.J. 2.J.

100 % Stat.

90 % Stat. RND

80 % Stat. RND RND

70 % Stat. RND RND RND

60 % Stat. RND RND RND RND

50 % - 50% RND RND RND RND RND RND

60 % Luck RND RND RND RND RND RND RND

70 % Luck RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND

80 % Luck RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND

90 % Luck RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND

100 % Luck RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND RND

During the generation procedure, if there are no more numbers that comply with the rules, the software goes one step back (if you choose 90%, the software will consider 80%).

6 - USEFUL INFORMATION ABOUT THE THAI LOTTERY

6.1 - History of Thai Lottery

The idea of lottery goes back a very long way, towards ancient times.

Lottery first started in Thailand in the reign of King Rama V. It was first drawn in an international exposition arranged in the King's birthday celebration. Again in 1917, a lottery drawing was arranged to finance Thailand's entry into World War I on the Allied side. Next, lottery was used to finance the Thai Red Cross charity works expenses in 1932.

Lottery was first drawn to generate revenue for the government in 1934 to finance the short fall in government income due to the abolition of draftee tax, levied on Thai males who wished to forego compulsory military service. The drawing was implemented by the Revenue Department. In the same year, lottery operation was also introduced to the provinces to finance the provincial municipality operations.

In 1939, the control of government lottery operation was transferred to the Ministry of Finance with the appointment of the first lottery board by the Ministry of Finance on April 5, 1939, which is now held as the founding date of the Government Lottery Office.

At present, the Lottery Office issues 14 million tickets for each draw. In the same draw, it also issues two million tickets for sports promotion and seven million for other charity organizations. To produce the lottery tickets, the Government Lottery Office operates a modern, large-scale printing press, which also handles printing jobs for other government agencies as well.

Each year, the Lottery Office turns in over 4,000 million Baht to the government treasury. It also provides 440 scholarships of 20,000 Baht each for undergraduates and earmark 8 million Baht a year for various charities. The office also contributes close to 20 million Baht a year for the welfare fund of civil service and military personal, Welfare Council of Thailand, and the War Veteran Association.

People of Thailand are very fond of being gamblers themselves. Lottery is taken very seriously in Thailand as it is the only kind of gambling allowed in the nation.

6.2 - Rules

The process of winning a lottery starts from the purchase of a lottery ticket. Everyone who enters tries to use their intuition at the time of buying lottery ticket, but unfortunately most people fail since a single draw of a lottery can only produce few winners.

First, we would like to talk about what a Thai lottery ticket looks like.

As you can see, there is only one kind of lottery available, used in Thailand for a long time. It is still paper-based material while many other countries have developed an electronic system to organize the lottery tickets. In Thailand, you’ll have to get lottery tickets from agents, who receive these tickets from retailers. As you are obliged to buy a ticket that already has the number printed, you will have to search to find somebody selling the specific numbers you have in mind.

Future projects of the Government Lottery Office include a plan to create a service that would allow lottery purchases and prize payments to be made via commercial banks' country-wide network of automated teller machines.


Usually, lottery tickets are drawn twice a month: the 1st day of the month and the 16th. Every ticket costs 40 + 40 Baht – they are always purchased in doubles. This is the official price. The top and the bottom part have the same number, and it is not possible to buy just one part. So, every ticket will still cost you 80 Baht plus the agent's fees (between 20 and 40 Baht). However, if you win, your prize is doubled. Every ticket has a single 6-digit number.

During the live draws, a lot of numbers are drawn every time, as they’ll have to draw all of the numbers according to the number of prizes stated. Now, the prizes and amount of this lottery are as follow:

1st Prize (1 number) 2 million Baht2nd prize (5 numbers) 100'000 Baht3rd prize (10 numbers) 40'000 Baht4th prize (50 numbers) 20'000 Baht5th prize (100 numbers) 10'000 Baht3-digit numbers (4 numbers) 2'000 Baht2-digit number (1 number) 1'000 BahtBonus prize (2 numbers) 50'000 Baht.

The Bonus prize is for people whose first 5 digits are correct but the last digit is incorrect by one number above or below (for example, if the First Prize ticket’s last digit is “5″ you can get the bonus prize if yours has a “4″ or “6″).

6.3 - Background Lotteries

There are background lotteries in Thailand that are based on the draws of the official one.

All of these lotteries are illegal. We strongly encourage you to only purchase official tickets of the national lottery in order to avoid penalties and for the pleasure of contributing to the growth of a lottery unique in the world for its particular rules.

6.4 - Fake tickets

Lastly, let's talk about how to watch out for a fake lottery ticket, which could be sold to anyone. Unfortunately there are people who will try to sell fake Thai Lottery tickets to the unwary. Most Thai people can easily spot a fake by the lack of a proper watermark but foreigners can be more easily duped. Here are some simple rules to avoid being fooled.

A fake ticket has the following characteristics:

- A different color from the original- Different paper- No watermark

By searching for a ticket, simply follow these simple steps:

- Have a look at a genuine ticket so you know what to look for. - Never buy a ticket from a stranger who doesn’t appear to be a regular vendor- It is best to only buy tickets from a vendor that Thai people are buying from- If you have any doubts about the validity of the ticket, simply walk away

Never pay more than 110 Baht for lottery tickets (90-100 Baht is the usual cost from a vendor). It is also not realistic to expect to pay only the actual cost of these tickets (80 Baht) as the vendors have to make a profit, as they are not paid by the lottery office directly.


6.5 - General Information

Anyone, either Thai or foreign, may play and win the state lottery in Thailand. Currently, prizes cannot be claimed through banks.
